Piggys Smokin Blues Lounge

Piggy's Lounge for lunch is the place to go for fresh quality food in La Crosse. The salad and soup bar is filled with any item you could want for under 10 dollars. Each of the 3 soups that were provided the 2 different times I went, were delicious.

Additionally you can get a GIANT half of a sandwich for $2.50. My friends and I all ordered the half sandwich and took it home for dinner. We filled up easily on the unlimited soup and salad.

We ate at the lounge and it was pretty good - the best we've had in la crosse so far.  We were expecting a dive from the name but it's quite nice and more refined than we were expecting. The cheese curds were good and not too heavy. The ribs got a thumbs up. The short ribs were also good but seemed like they should be served over noodles or mashed pos. The braised beef ravioli was nice, like a beef stroganoff without the sour cream.

We love the Smokin Blues Lounge!  They now run the full upstairs menu down in the lounge so you don't have to stick to sandwiches and appetizers.  All the wonderful, unique menu items that we love about dining upstairs can now be enjoyed in the more relaxed atmosphere.  And we have never heard a band there that we didn't like.
